Hi Mr. KC, I just want to thank you for this video!!! I have a 2011 Honda Pilot with check engine code P3497 (Cylinder Deactivation System Bank 2). And then I found your video. I bought the exact part you recommended at Oreilly store and then replaced it. Then after, I erased the code with my scanner and test drove the car. So far the car is not shaking and when I press the gas, it takes off pretty normal again. So far, so good... I'm praying this will fix my Pilot because I only have 150,000+ miles on it and I don't want to buy a new SUV. THANK YOU, THANK YOU AGAIN! (CẢM TẠ)
Thank you. I watched about three videos but yours was the most helpful of them all. I really appreciate you putting this out to the universe. I was able to fix my wife's 2013 Honda Odyssey Odyssey without the headaches of dealer.
This is apparently also known as the engine spool valve ; if you listed that in your title and description, you might get more views as many people with Honda Odysseys have this problem which in turn causes a leak that drips on the alternator beneath causing an electrical problem. Most figure the problem backwards as an electrical problem manifests first and then it gets traced back to the alternator but the etiology of the alternator failure is not addressed and repeats the problem. Mine had manifested but the leak was minimal, about 1.5 yr later it affected my alternator during the summer heat.
Thank you sir! Just replaced for the p3497 code. Afterward I scanned again and cleared the codes, but when I scanned again they reappeared on the scanner even though the check engine light was still off. Hopefully it just goes away now!
Hey man .. thanks so much for this video.. my 08 odyssey had that code I changed it as u did and now when I take out the freeway the engine no longer shakes like it previously was.I jus had a issue because after I switched it the oil kept leaking out , but I got the gasket seal and its working perfectly thank u again
Thank you for the video. I was able to replace it quickly. Question. What if you replace it and the engine light with the same code comes back within a day?
Hello my friend. Thank you so much for the video. I just got those codes. P3497 1. Valve pause system VPS stuck off 2. Valve pause system VPS stuck off bank 2 I have a Honda Odyssey 2014. Could you help me saying what I should to do and the part number of those parts ? Thanks a lot !!!
Hello William How are u? Changing VVt solenoid on back 2 is very simple. You just call to deal-ship or Auto part store and ask them for vvt solenoid bank 2 . They will tell you. You can follow my video. you should get your job done. Just want to let you know bank 2 is easy but bank 1 hard one and alot work need to be done. Thank you for watching.
Awesome video and how to. I have a 2016 Odyssey and I'm getting that code as well. I'll check that part number to see if it fits that year model. Do you know if the part you have fits different year models?
Hi, Scott Dudley how are you doing ? Please call to auto part or dealer I am not really sure 2014 and 2016 will be the same part number. Thank you so much for watching video Kim
Hi, brandon plasters How are you ? Bank 1 and bank 2 have different procedure to replace VVT. Bank 1 has a lot of procedure and also needs to remove valve cover out to replace VVT. Thank you so much for watching my video. Thank you Kim
Hi Hen Am Tab How are you ? It is the same solution for cylinder Deactivation and system back 2 and valve pause system stuck off. I am really sorry for late reply. I am also apricate for your comment on my video. Thank you kim
I changed the whole solenoid in Oct 21, 2021. I bought a Dorman 918-058 back then and replaced. 3 days ago I had an oil change and I wonder if the the code P3497 again has to do with it? I am panicking. Buy the whole solenoid again?
I have 2008 accord v6 Code on my scanner has P3497 engine shake or vibration Not sure how to fix please help Do I have to change sensor in back to or. Just. Front sensor??
Hi, Sonny How are you ? You need to replace only the front one . I want to tell you one before you decide to work in your car. Honda Accord and Odyssey are not the same procedure to replace VVT sensor. Thank you so much. kim
Hi Kim, That is very good and informative video, I have this code appearing in my Scanner, dose that cause a kind of vibration if the sensor is failed.
Hi,Mohammad Younes How are you doing? If the vvt sensor is failed, your car engine will vibration like almost the same engine misfire and lose power . Thank you so much for watching my video. If you have any questions , pls let me know. I am happy to give you more details. Thank you Kim
Hi Kim, Thanks a lot for your time to reply to my messages, I have ordered the parts and I have done the installation, but unfortunately I’m still getting the same issues, is there any sensors has an interface with this switch that may cause this problem. I realized when I put some load on the engine I’m getting this error and the engine losses the power. Once I switch off the engine and switch on back every thing goes to normal. Hope you have an answer to my problem Thanks in advance
@@mohammadyounes8263 How are you? If your car got the same issue. Did you get any check engine light on or any code come up? If you got some code pls let me know Thank you Kim
hey man, great video, i just bought a 2010 odyssey and 2 days after i bought it the engine light came on with this same code. there is a loss in performance but no engine shake or vibration. i read it might be also caused because of a after market oil filter. can you suggest what i should do first to fix this code?
Changing ur car engine oil and oil filter first then clear the code. If it does not help then change sensor ok I dt want u go to deep with electrical. Thank you pls let me if u guy need more help
@@foxtrotsteve it did fix for a little while then it came back on, did a little digging and found out the head gasket and steering wheel pump had some leaks. got those fixed and now everything seems to be working fine
Hello, I recieved an engine light after switching to sports mode on my 2011 accord v6. When I looked up the code it was P3497. The code went away after filling up the car with gas and stayed off; however, i still feel a loss of power and hear a rattling noise coming from egine bay upon cold start. Could the solution in this video fix this problem?
I changed the vvt solenoid for p3497 system bank 4 but then it appeared again on scanner p3497 system bank 2 what should i do? After changing the the solenoid it has made engine less shaky but now it has a shake to it but not as bad but i do feel a lost of performance when I accelerate to normal speeds on roads
What would you think if you got the p3400 and p3497 code at the same time and the won’t run. Let the car warm up one cold morning and came out to it not running and now won’t start. Any ideas?
Hi sir It is VVT solenoid sir. You can buy VVT solenoid at Honda dealership or auto part store. Thank you so much for watching my video. You have a wonderful day.
